Topic: VP Pick (Read 44262 times)

i have watched Biden for a long time. he's got a real nasty streak. he gets away with it because of his aw shucks persona, but the real guy is a jerk.

In Joe Biden's lets say "performance" during the Vice Presidential debates I recognized another famous politician from America's past, former Alabama Governor George Wallace. Joe Biden's and George Wallace's demeanor in debates are one and the same.

A confrontational style is always the debating style one takes when you are defending what you know is a loosing proposition or a position that you KNOW is on the wrong side of history. When "Defending" the indefensible you "Rope-a-dope" the clock as much as possible by interupting and talking out of turn to interupt the audience's train of though to keep the truth coming to light. It's really a form of lying. Biden's debate demeanor reminds me of a little boy changing the subject away from who was playing ball in the house when aunt Edna's antique Ming vase got broken. The only other thing I can think of to describe Biden's behavior is to compair it to a cheating husband trying to change the subject away from the lip stick on his collar.

Y’all do remember the quality standard the GOP has set for VP candidates? Right? You know, those real deep thinkers that can’t spell potato and makes up a new story line for Paul Revere’s midnight ride.

I don’t really like Biden, but I would rather have him a heartbeat away than GOP stars like Quayle and Palin.

Given that the plural of potato is potatoes and that Biden manges the language not to mention the facts every day in ways that Jed Clampet can only dream about what is your point about Biden being better than Palin?

In fact Joe Biden would do well to take charm school as well as grammer lessons from Sara Palin.

.....The greatest changes occur in their country without their cooperation. They are not even aware of precisely what has taken place. They suspect it; they have heard of the event by chance. More than that, they are unconcerned with the fortunes of their village, the safety of their streets, the fate of their church and its vestry. They think that such things have nothing to do with them, that they belong to a powerful stranger called the government. They enjoy these goods as tenants, without a sense of ownership, and never give a thought to how they might be improved.....

In fact I do seem to remember that Paul Revere was arrested by the Red Coats and they towed his horse, something about not having proof of insurance or parking in a handicapped zone or something like that, I don't know, maybe they confiscated his horse because Paul Revere was riding around the country side in the middle of the night (One and two o’clock) screaming at the top of his lungs, "To arms... to arms... the Red Coats are coming."

My next question for our leftist beek friends is what language do you think the Red Coats 'sabad' back there in 1775, Klingon? Every Red Coat within the sound of Paul Revere’s voice knew exactly what he was doing and that is why they tried to stop him? By the way, Paul Revere was not the only patriot who was warning the colonist or to paraphrase H. W. Longfellow, "... spreading the alarm to every Middlesex village and farm." Paul Revere had at least two accomplishes in his nefarious deed.

Kathy, you should know better than bother a Democrat with facts. They are irrelevant to them.

The “Anti-colonialist in chief” can’t even get that right.The only organized possessions of the United States are; Guam, Puerto Rico, The U. S. Virgin Islands, The Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa. This would yield a total of 55 states and organized territories, supporting Obama’s biographer, Denish D’souza’s contention that Obama’s attempt to destroy the United States of America is driven by his irrational anti-colonialism.

If you add; Midway Atoll, Palmyra Atoll, Wake Atoll, Baker and Howland Islands, Jarvis Island, Johnston Atoll, Kingman Reef, and Navassa Island, all unorganized possessions that would create an additional 8 territories, raising the total number of states and territories to 63.

I was predicting a Bachmann or Palin response to the question of how many states their are :roll:

Iddee: I have never been and likely never will be a Democrat. My political leanings are in a continued effort to punish the Republican Party for the Bush years.... They put up Mitt, so apparently they didn't get the message...

I might attempt to punish the bad, bad, bad at times, but it won't be by supporting the bad, bad, bad, bad, bad side of the coin.

You probably didn't spend your time during the Romney Gov run in a neighboring state hearing his campaign ads on the radio, or reading about his Governorship in the News paper. ;)

He is one heck of a chamelion I will give him that, he has a knack for telling people he is talking to exactly what they want to hear. Policy wise, his actions are in many ways very similar to Obama's. So we are left with the old choice of believe what he says or judge what he did.

His success was in Fooling the base during the primary, now the Party is so focused on getting a R in the Whitehouse they don't care what his policies are, they are voting for him anyway...

A Romney Admin will reflect similar policies as we currently have with a cronyism similar to what we saw with Bush JR. Gov contracts galore for Companies he was previously associated with... One more expensive lesson for the Party with little chance they will learn anything.

>A Romney Admin will reflect similar policies as we currently have with cronyism

I have a hard time accepting anything you say about Romney after reading some of your other leftist comments about this and other subjects.Even if the cronyism you speak of were true, cronyism is not our only or most important thing going on in this country. Things like energy independence, foreign policy, SS, medicare and welfare reform and a host of other things need to be delt with and it is obvious the guy running things now has proved he is not capable of dealing with them.When a head coach of a big football school doesn't win he is replaced or a big company is loosing money the CEO is fired and that is in order here.There are no guaranties but we have got to try someone else.

I will vouch for Bluegrass. What he says is reality.

Isn’t it funny how the Republican party keeps going more and more right wing yet they keep on nominating moderates and liberals for the top of their ticket. Heck if I were to pick any Republican as my choice for President it would be Romney! Doesn’t that tell our right wings beeks something about Romney!

I don’t see a Romney admin being much different than an Obama admin either; what I’m more concerned about is getting the right wingers out of Congress. That’s where they do the most damage.

This is TRUE, unfortunately many times you end up with somebody much WORSE. Rich Rodriguez turned the winning-est program in college football into a joke :(

LOL, are you kidding me? What a joke! CEOs don’t get fired for bad decisions.

"""I will vouch for Bluegrass. What he says is reality.""" :lau: :lau: :lau:

I would put more faith in Bluegrass than Bluebee. At least his posts are plausible, even if they are ridiculous.
